The discretionary policy of the US Patent Office's claim for balance with the new administration

The discretionary policy of the US Patent Office's claim for balance with the new administration

[25.5.22.] The US Patent Office (USPTO) is undergoing many changes under the Trump 2nd administration. Before John Squires, who was named USPTO, was officially inaugurated, the head of the COKE STEWART was already in the Inter Parts Review on February 28 this year. We announced that we will withdraw the existing internal guidelines (the following vidal memo described later), which restricts the exercise of discretionary dismissal of the Patent Judge (PTAB). Since the patent invalidity trial system of the Patent Judge has been used as an effective means of invalidating the patent in relation to the patent infringement proceedings filed by the US District Court or the International Trade Commission (ITC), the industry is focusing on this policy change. Below, we will look at the process and contents of the US Patent Office's position and guidelines on the exercise of discretionary dismissal of the Patent Judge. I.

News Summary: Apple has filed a legal appeal against a UK government order requiring the company to create a "back door" to its encrypted cloud storage systems, the Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) confirmed on Monday (via Reuters). The confirmation means that the Home Office cannot keep all the details of its demand out of the public domain. The high-profile challenge follows reports earlier this year that the UK used its Investigatory Powers Act to demand secret access to encrypted user data uploaded to iCloud worldwide. Apple responded by removing its Advanced Data Protection feature from the UK rather than compromising its security standards. According to the IPT ruling, the British government had sought to keep details of the case private. The Home Office argued that publicizing the existence of the appeal could damage national security, but Judges Rabinder Singh and Jeremy Johnson rejected this claim. `` It would have been a truly extraordinary step to conduct a hearing entirely in secret without any
